Greetings,

Is this a new problem? Any new hardware or software?

Is this sound coming from your computer speakers or you motherboard/case speaker?

If the former you might have your Event Log Error sound turned on and receiving errors.

Check your Event Viewer and check for recurring Errors under either System or Application.

To discover the type of Errors the machine has encountered recently, use Event Viewer.

1. Go to Start - Run, type eventvwr.msc, then Press Enter.
2. When the Event Viewer opens, there will be two panes.
   The left pane is for event categories (Application, Security, and System).
   The right pane is for event messages (Information, Warning, and Error). (We want to find errors.)
3. Left-click the Application category in the left pane and check for any error messages in the right pane.
   You want to find the one(s) that occurred at the same time your system encountered the problem you have posted about.
4. Repeat the previous step for each category, or until you find an appropriate error to investigate.
5. Double-click the error message to bring up the information.
6. Click the third button on the right side of the information window (copies information)
7. Paste the information here

the noise is coming from the board, when speakers are off you can still hear the noise and when speakers are on it is louder. If I do have Event Log Error sound turned on how do I trun it off?

some of the error messages are as follows:
